Volunteer Blog- Souls Migrated Documentary Shoot Part 1

On Friday 22nd April, filming began on the Women in Neighbourhood’s (WiN) production of a short documentary called Souls Migrated. The film captures the thoughts and memories of people who migrated to the UK – specifically memories of their original homeland, which in some cases they were forced to leave in traumatic circumstances.

A team from the TV film and video production company began filming in Queen’s Pa...

Get fit with WiN

As well as providing an online community for the women of Bolton to share, create and discuss, WiN also wants the town’s women to be healthy in the body as well as the mind.
